A quick puzzle!  I played black in this 5 0 blitz game.

Brilliant, Andy. Sometimes you can easily create such combinations at the expense of your opponent's carelessness.

The first thing I tryed is the weaker instant Nxc7+ which implies that we could assume that that that's what I would've done in a blitz game.

A nice puzzle of a rook exchange then a fork.  This type of tactics never seems to occur in any of my games.

How would you know?  I looked at one of your games to see if you missed some tactics.  You resigned in the opening before anything had happened, forget any big blunder.  Stay in the game.  Good luck!
